I picked up, but there was no one on the other end and they just cut the call straight away.

Watch out, this is definitely a scam so make sure to block this number right away. It’s a waste of time to pick up when they call. Honestly, these kinds of calls should be banned completely, it's just ridiculous.

I just don’t answer to numbers I don’t recognise - I block them straight away. From what I know, +44 is the code for calls coming into the UK from abroad. But this call looked like it was coming from Northern Ireland, which is inside the UK, so it doesn’t really make sense to me!

I got a call from a woman speaking English with an Asian accent, and there was loads of noise in the background, like she was sat in some busy call centre. She said she was ringing from Currys PC World. When I told her I’m not even a customer and asked how they got my number, she suddenly started yelling at me, saying, “You listen here, miss!” I tried to mention GDPR but she kept talking over me, so I just ended the call and blocked the number. Rude cold callers are the worst!

Got a call from a Dungannon, Northern Ireland number. I picked up since I've got family living there, but couldn’t really catch what the lady on the line was trying to say - sounded like a lot of chatter in the background. She might’ve been calling from some busy spot, maybe a bar or something. The accent sounded Indian, I think.

+44 28 8707 9848 I reckon this number is tied to a bunch of scams, probably from some dodgy call centre abroad pretending to be from Northern Ireland. Definitely sketchy stuff going on here.

I usually avoid answering numbers I don’t know, but this time I picked up since my phone didn’t flag it as spam. As soon as the guy started speaking with an Indian accent and there was loads of background noise, I just thought, “Not another call from a call centre!” Then, before I could say much, the bloke just hung up on me. Quite annoying really.

My phone said the call was coming from Dungannon, but I could barely catch what the woman was saying. She had a really thick Indian accent, and there was so much background noise, like I was listening to a busy call centre or something.

I got a call from someone with a really poor connection, saying they were from Currys - PC World, asking if I wanted to extend my phone contract through them. Thing is, I don’t even have a contract with those guys, so it was obvious they were just cold calling to push a sale. I didn’t hang about and cut the call pretty quick before they could try any hard sell tactics. Feels like a scam to me, definitely not genuine Currys / PC World stuff.

I got a call from someone pretending to be from Currys-PC World saying they had a big sale on mobile phones right now. When I asked for proof or more details, the bloke just dropped the call. Be careful and don’t share any details with these scammers - it just helps them get your info and pass it around. Best thing to do is just hang up straight away!

I had the misfortune of dealing with a con artist who claimed to represent Curry's PC World, attempting to entice me with a fantastic deal. They were pushing some sort of promotional offer, boasting about an iPhone 14 available at a remarkable discount. Naturally, I politely declined!

Got a call about some sort of iPhone discount, sounded a bit dodgy. Then they rang me back just a few minutes later and cut off straight away. Definitely felt like a scam to me.

From now on, I think I'll stay extra careful, just to be on the safe side.

Got a call about a supposed iPhone discount. They rang back just three minutes later then cut the line. When they called a third time, I told them to quit ringing me.

Loads of calls I’ve had from numbers beginning with these digits turned out to be scams, plenty of others have reported the same too.

Some dodgy caller rang my little brother who’s only 12, telling him he could get unlimited stuff on an old Nokia brick phone πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Honestly, don’t take the bait, it’s a total scam.

Got a call from someone saying they were from Currys PC World, offering some "new deal". Honestly, seems a bit dodgy to me - who actually buys or sells gadgets through cold calls anyway? Totally not believable.
